= Whole brain emulation
{synonym}
{title2}

<Wikipedia> defines <Mind uploading> as a synonym for <whole brain emulation>. This sounds really weird, as "mind uploading" suggests much more simply <brain dumping>, or perhaps reuploading a brain dump to a brain.

<Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom (2014)> section "Whole brain emulation" provides a reasonable setup: post mortem, take a brain, freeze it, then cut it into fine slices with a <Microtome>, and then inspect slices with an <electron microscope> after some kind of staining to determine all the synapses.

Likely implies <AGI>.


Mind uploading

{wiki}

The <musical study> of <software engineering>.

<Ciro Santilli> is obsessed by those in order to learn any new concept, not just for bug reporting.

This includes to learn more theoretical subjects like <physics> and <mathematics>.

Jeff has spoken a lot in public about <Amazon>, perhaps even more than other comparable founders, see e.g. <History of Amazon>{full}. Kudos for that.
